Dubai, UAE, 2007. The Camel is a symbol of Arabia. This photo taken by my wife, near the Camel Pens.
The UAE has more than two million camels and camel races are among the most popular sports events in the country. The camel races take place every winter, from October to April on various tracks throughout the UAE. His Highness Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, along with other rulers of the emirates, attends most of the races.
